PS 340 - The Sixth Avenue Elementary School

Thank you for your interest in PS 340 - The Sixth Avenue Elementary School. 

The Kindergarten application for children born in 2017 is open from December 8 - January 18, 2022. 

We are currently not conducting in-person school tours due to COVID health and safety precautions.

 - We will be holding a virtual Kindergarten information session on January 6th, 2022 at 4:00.  (Sign-ups closed)

 - We will schedule an information session for Pre-K once the application season opens (Feb/March).  Sign up here if you would be interested in attending the virtual information session and I will let you know when it is scheduled. Non-Pre-K families are welcome to attend as well!

Important:  We are listed as The Sixth Avenue Elementary School (02M340) in MySchools.  Do NOT add P.S. 340 (10X340) unless you are looking for the PS 340 in the Bronx.
